INSUFFICIENT LEANING

Is it true that Open-source AI language models require a GPU to run?
Unclear. Two items partially bear on the claim: one notes small open-source models can run locally on a single GPU, and another describes open-source vision models run locally via Ollama, but neither settles whether a GPU is required to run open-source AI language models.
